   U.S. needs "eyes" all around the world. Rebuilding these areas makes $$ + establishes "eyes" even if covert. You think the U.S blew up and then rebuilt Japan outta the goodness of their heart? Rebuilding the infrastructure has you "in like Flynn" with respect to monitoring everything going on for an extended time period.

I don't want in when it means paying for the national defense of these places for decades.  I want out.  If not, let them pay us.  The US pays for the privilege of defending "Europe" and Japan.  It should be the other way around.

Somewhere "Rick Plant" is smiling down on you with this pro-establishment propaganda and misinformation.  Don't take my word for it, though.  80 million Americans rendered their verdict on Old Joe and Kacklin Kamala in the last election.  Let's revisit some lowlights:

Illegal immigration broke all previous records:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Arrests for illegal border crossings from Mexico reached an all-time high in December since monthly numbers have been released, authorities said Friday, exposing a growing vulnerability for President Joe Biden in his campaign for a second term.

Inflation hit a 40-year high:

WASHINGTON (AP) — Inflation jumped at its fastest pace in nearly 40 years last month, a 7% spike from a year earlier that is increasing household expenses, eating into wage gains and heaping pressure on President Joe Biden and the Federal Reserve to address what has become the biggest threat to the U.S. economy.

Record violent crime that the FBI tried to suppress:

FBI quietly updates crime data to show big jump in violence under Biden-Harris admin: 'Shocking'
A 2.1% drop in violent crimes in 2022 has now been revised to show a 4.5% increase, crime and data expert John Lott found.

Dishonest "Richard" doesn't give the dates of those headlines.  There's a reason for that.

Not surprising that "Mytton" would believe yet another piece of tabloid trash.

All of the events that I cited occurred during the Biden administration.  I've added dates for anyone who does not have access to Google and didn't live through that disastrous period.

Did Biden cause the Covid-19 epidemic?

Have your grocery prices started coming down yet?

Did Biden cause Covid?  No.  He was too dumb to do that.  Fauci likely had a role, though.  Did Biden politicize it and change the voting laws in every state to alter the outcome of the 2020 election?  Yes.  Trump has been president for less than a month.  It will take decades to undo the harm caused by Old Joe assuming that it is not already too late.  $38 trillion and counting in debt.  The prices will go down under Trump.  When they do, you will be here telling that inflation has nothing to do with the president.  And on and on down the circle of leftist lunacy.

How much did The Traitorous Orange Xxxx (rhymes with "bird") add to the national debt with his tax breaks to large corporations and wealthy donors, Smith?

Wasn't the high inflation of "Sleepy Joe's" Administration caused by the Covid-19 epidemic that your boy so grossly mishandled and which not only killed about a million Americans, but caused the economy to lose 23 million jobs and fall into a recession in early 2020 as well -- necessitating high fiscal spending and the lowering of interest rates to pull us out of it?

Didn't the inflation rate come back down to below 3% near the end of "Sleepy Joe's" Administration, and hasn't it already started rising under The Traitorous Orange Xxxx's?

(Just wait until his tariffs kick in!)

What election laws did "Sleepy Joe" and/or "Libtards" change that hurt The Traitorous Orange Xxxx so grievously in the 2020 election?

The ones that required a person be white and xxxxxxxxx like you in order to vote?

Were any of those laws successfully challenged in the sixty-or-so lawsuits you MAGATs brought after the election?

How many of the judges in those cases were Republicans?

How long have you been a "useful idiot," Smith?

(It's an old KGB expression)

PS You're missing an object pronoun in your next-to-last sentence.
